Looking beyond the abject waffle:
Why would they want to spread such disinformation? Who do 15minute cities principles benefit? What monopolies do they challenge?
Or are they just a bunch of proper idiots?

Why did a government minister suggest local councils will be able to decide how often you can go to the shops at the Conservative conference today?
@AndrewBowie_MP, Minister for Nuclear and Networks at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, explained on #BBCPM

TLDR;
It's very bad, getting worse, and we need more £ from Gov and action from industry to sort it out

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods are proven to:
🚫 Halve road injuries.
🚫 Halve vehicle movements.
🚫 Reduce pollution; even at boundaries.
🚫 Reduce serious street crime.
Yesterday you chose to take that away from the people of Tower Hamlets.
Let that be your shameful legacy.

Watching @UKGBC's 'Embodied Ecological Impacts' workstream launch
Great to hear @SmithMordak get philosophical
'We are active participants' in nature, in our collective life support system, and we need a 'positive, loving relationship' with our planet

The PM's roll back on green policies will not cut bills and send a chill across all UK green industries - not just heat pump, insulation and electric car manufacturers.
Who will have the confidence to invest now?

Dropping energy efficiency requirements for landlords specifically is a straight transfer to landlords (who no longer have to invest ) from tenants (who will pay more every year on their bills)

Some more pantomime governance from the masters of self-interest and self-protectionism
Ofc it’s no surprise that individuals are willing to act in this way. It is, after all, the reason we’re in this mess in the first place

My assumption is that the govt is watering down their net zero commitments because they want to make it harder for Labour to demonstrate economic credibility in the election campaign. It will be to generate cost and tax stories. BUT (1/4)

If the British Conservative Party has proven one thing over the last 13 years, it’s that it is crap when it comes to money. Remember that when Suella and Co. begin talking about ‘bankrupting British families’ in the pursuit of Net Zero

The blueprint for a move towards nature-positivity
It's time that companies of all kinds took responsibility for their contributions towards nature's destruction, whether direct or indirect

Remember, the incels who support JP are the same people who think 15minute cities are a conspiracy to detain you, that “motorists” have an identity that should be recognized as equal to people, and that democrats/celebrities drink blood

Fringe climate crisis deniers are getting millions more views on YouTube thanks to Jordan Peterson.
It’s why @MichaelEMann now calls Peterson a ‘central cog in the denial machine.’

Did you know that green screens on roadsides reduce N02 & PM10's by between 36%-41% from passing vehicles according to research by @KingsCollegeLon
🌿We've installed 70m of ivy screens along the busy A1 Archway Rd @IslingtonBC to reduce pollution & increase the local biodiversity
ALT On behalf of the London Borough of Islington, we installed 70 linear meters of 1.6m tall hedera helix Woerner (ivy) screens in timber planters along the busy A1 Archway Rd to act as a pollution barrier and lighten up the area for the local residents.

Will this send a positive message to those of the fence?
Or will it add fuel to the denialist Republican fire? 😂
